The Camera Store in Calgary accepts large format shutters for service. It also handles large format camera repairs and services such as mounting a lens on a lensboard and other machining for photographers. You won't find these services on their website:

However that will give you the contact information and a sense of what the store is about if you aren't familiar with it.
The cost of a CLA is $99.95 CDN. This includes ultrasonic cleaning of the escapement and all critical components, lubrication with very high quality, space-age, lubricants and timing on a precision digital timer. There is a 15% discount if you bring three or more shutters in at once.
If repairs are required most parts for Copal shutters are available, however Compur parts are problematic.
A query about having shutters cleaned in Calgary came up in another Thread and rather than saying too much about it there, it seemed more appropriate to talk about it here. I've been Camera Store's service provider for this work for over a decade. I'm happy to answer any questions LF Forum members have by PM or E-mail.
